Theologian Griffin goes into tinfoil-hat speculationon occasion, but his recent CSPAN-broadcasted talk marks the firsttime that a noted author has broken into the national mass-media withsome critiques of the official position. "If 'American empire' isunderstood in different ways, the same is all the more true of theterm '9/11.' For those Americans who accept the officialinterpretation, 9/11 was a surprise attack on the US government andits people by Islamic terrorists. For some Americans, '9/11' has amore complex meaning. This second group, while accepting the officialinterpretation of the attacks, thinks of 9/11 primarily as an eventthat was used opportunistically by the Bush administration to extendthe American empire. This interpretation is effectively presented bywriters such as Noam Chomsky, Rahul Mahajan, and Chalmers Johnson. Fora third group of Americans, the term '9/11' connotes an event with amore sinister dimension. These citizens believe that the Bushadministration knew the attacks were coming and intentionally let themhappen. Although no national poll has been taken to ascertain how manyAmericans hold this view, a Zogby poll surprisingly indicated thatalmost half of the residents of New York City do. According to afourth view of 9/11, the attacks were not merely foreknown by the Bushadministration; they were orchestrated by it. Although thus far nopoll has tried to find out how many Americans hold this view, polls inCanada and Germany some time back indicated that this view was thenheld by 15 to 20 percent of their people."
